What a ride! I love the way this book was written.  The flow of the story was fantastic and the reveal at the end was great! Daisy has a heart condition.  Her family acts like she doesn't exist. She stays away from everyone except her loving grandmother. On her grandmother's 80th birthday she summons the entire family to her home for one last family celebration. When Daisy's grandmother turns up dead Daisy knows she has to figure out who killed her.
